Art Unchained 網上媒體藝術展覽 及 午間論壇
2020年11月11日 – 2020年11月22日
· 由藝術及科技領域的業界翹楚Joanne Ooi、Lisa Botos及Jean-Luc Gustave策展, 一連兩星期的Art Unchained網上媒體藝術展覽展出由法國藝術家Patrick Tresset所設計的藝術裝置,並設2場分別於11月13日和20日舉行的午間論壇,深入探討創新科技如區塊鏈如何重塑消費者的體驗和藝術界的生態。
· 法國藝術家Patrick Tresset現居比利時,其作品曾於世界各大藝術館展出,包括法國龐比度中心、意大利米蘭的普拉達藝術基金會、倫敦的泰特美術館及維多利亞與艾伯特博物館、首爾國立現代美術館及東京的森美術館。
· 藝術裝置Human Study #1, 5RNP由五隻機械手臂組成,在每節二十分鐘的繪畫時間内,可完成一幅肖像素描作品。
· 每隻機械手臂的繪畫風格經由電腦程序設計,以模仿人類的性格及行爲方式,像是緊張及腼腆等;有的會揮筆鏗鏘有力,有的亦會較慢條斯理及心思慎密。
· 展覽在太古坊網頁直播展出。此藝術裝置定格為一場表演藝術,繪畫對象坐下後,作爲「表演者」的機械手臂隨即進行運算、觀察及創作。所有的元素,包括聲音、燈光、繪畫對象及工作人員的行爲擧止,均經過細心的編排,以帶給觀衆不一樣的觀賞體驗。
· Tresset特別為是次展覽調整機械手臂的設定及運算方式,使它們能識別戴上口罩的繪畫對象;每個參與展覽的繪畫對象更是經過嚴選的專業演出者。
· Tresset的作品較著重人性化的表現,多於展現科技的層面。透過Art Unchained展覽帶來的獨特體驗,策展者希望進一步啟發觀眾對於藝術及人性之間界限的思考和討論,對這些全新的藝術可能性抱持開放態度。
卡塔爾航空的最新數據: 超過99.988%的旅客於乘搭卡塔爾航空的航班時並無受到新冠肺炎感染
根據卡塔爾航空發佈的數據,近幾個月內只有遠低於百分之一的旅客在飛行後被有關部門檢測到對新冠病毒呈陽性反應,而超過99.988%的旅客於乘搭卡塔爾航空的航班時並無受到感染,這得益於卡塔爾航空完善的病毒監控及檢測流程,以及嚴格的機上衛生標準。
此外,卡塔爾航空還得出其機組人員感染率僅為0.002%,遠低於一個百分點的數值顯示了其在機組人員防護方面取得的重要成就。自2020年5月要求機組人員執勤期間穿戴防護裝備及旅客在飛行期間佩戴口罩以來,卡塔爾航空的機組人員截至目前並無任何新增病例報告。
卡塔爾航空集團行政總裁Akbar Al Baker先生表示:「這些最新的數據清晰地表明了航空旅行的安全性,只要採取正確的防控措施,公眾完全不必對乘搭航班存有顧慮,這些防控舉措包括實施機上安全程序、提升機場衛生標準、發佈社交距離規定,並配合地方當局進行包括檢測在內的入境流程等。」
「自疫情以來,卡塔爾航空已經實施了全球航空業內最嚴格的病毒監控及檢測標準,同時還發佈了一系列機上衛生計劃。作為行業的一員,我們致力於促進全球商業航空的復甦,同時希望乘客們在飛行時能得到最好的安全保護,在乘搭任何一家航空公司時都能享受到無憂、放心的行程保障。」
「我們秉承以風險管理為核心的疫情防控理念,除要求來自『高風險』國家及地區的旅客進行核酸檢測外,還在客艙內使用先進的HEPA空氣過濾系統。卡塔爾航空服務公司(Qatar Aviation Services)近期還採用了美國Honeywell的全新紫外線客艙清潔系統,對飛機客艙進行額外的全方位消毒程序,此舉亦表明了卡塔爾航空加強機上防控措施的決心。此外,我們還在5月進行機組人員機上防護培訓,同時針對客艙乘務員推出機上防護裝備,以減少機組成員在執勤期間感染新冠病毒的機率。」
「正是因為以上周密的防控措施,自2020年2月以來卡塔爾航空運載的460萬人次中,超過99.988%的旅客均無感染新冠病毒,而我們營運的超過37,000架次航班成功實現『零感染』,機上確診病例大幅低於一個百分點。國際航協近期的研究亦顯示,每2,700名乘客中才可能有一宗確診病例,種種數據均表示乘坐飛機時感染新冠病毒的機率極低,航空旅行仍然是目前最安全的出行方式,乘客們可放心地乘搭飛機旅行。」
「雖然目前的數據非常樂觀,但我們仍將繼續密切關注全球疫情的發展,繼續實施嚴格的疫情防控措施;若機上出現確診病例,我們將與有關衛生部門緊密合作,對同航班的密切接觸者進行追蹤。作為一個全球性行業,我們必須時刻保持警惕,杜絕『防疫疲憊』,繼續完善常態化防控機制,樹立乘客對航空旅行的信心,無論是探親訪友還是休閒旅行,確保乘客都能得到安全的行程保障。」
根據國際航空運輸協會(IATA)的最新數據,卡塔爾航空在4月至7月期間是全球規模最大的國際航空公司,其透過履行保障人們安全回家的使命,已運載數以萬計的旅客。卡塔爾航空在疫情期間累積了大量安全營運的經驗,堅持以重塑全球網絡為導向,繼續為全球旅客服務。目前,卡塔爾航空已在客艙及多哈哈馬國際機場內實施最嚴格的安全及衛生措施。
卡塔爾航空為乘客和客艙機組人員採取了多種機上防控措施,客艙乘務員在機上工作期間須穿戴個人防護裝備,乘客在飛行途中則可免費獲得卡塔爾航空貼心準備的防護套裝,其中包含防護口罩及面罩。乘搭商務艙的乘客還可以享受Qsuite空中套房無與倫比的私隱度,包括可調節的隱藏面板和可閉合的趟門,營造私人專屬空間。希望減少與乘務員接觸的乘客還可亮起「免打擾」(DND)指示燈,享受更多空中私人時光。目前有超過30條航線配備Qsuite,包括法蘭克福、倫敦、吉隆坡、紐約等。更多關於防疫措施的資訊,請瀏覽:www.qatarairways.com/zh-hk/safety-measures.html。
卡塔爾航空在其樞紐機場——多哈哈馬國際機場(HIA)實施嚴格的清潔消毒程序及社交距離措施,該機場是世界上首個通過BSI英國標準協會的國際民航組織(ICAO)新冠病毒航空健康與安全流程獨立驗證的組織。在此之前,國際民航組織理事會航空復甦工作組(ICAO CART)已對哈馬國際機場進行合規審核。此舉亦標誌著卡塔爾成為世界上首個通過英國標準協會的新冠病毒航空健康與安全流程驗證的國家。
哈馬國際機場致力保障旅客安全出行,通過地板標記、設立標識和旅客分散就坐等措施,確保機場內所有旅客接觸點之間保持1.5米距離。哈馬國際機場每10-15分鐘對航站樓內的乘客接觸點進行一次消毒,並在每次航班起飛後清潔登機口、遠機位登機區域的設施。航站樓內的零售商品、餐飲設施均鼓勵顧客使用銀行卡等非接觸、非紙幣付款方式,未來機場還將考慮引入網上及應用程式支付渠道。此外,機場還針對行李推車、安檢盒等用品進行定期消毒。
哈馬國際機場近期在2020年世界機場大獎評選中,從全球550個機場中脫穎而出,獲國際航空運輸評級機構Skytrax評為「全球最佳機場第三名」,並連續六年獲得「中東最佳機場」、連續五年獲得「中東最佳機場員工服務」獎項。
為了確保旅客可以安心地計劃旅行,卡塔爾航空已擴展預訂政策,為旅客提供更多選擇。有關完整的條款和細則,請瀏覽:www.qatarairways.com。

Alba White Truffle Nikkei Reloaded
Seasonal change brings about a wealth of new ingredients to experience and renewed vim and vigor to explore Hong Kong's abundant culinary delights. This November, Pirata Group introduces new hero dishes and limited-time menus to celebrate the bounty of autumn.
White Truffle Extravaganza
Pirata Group's namesake and flagship rooftop restaurant invites guests to White Truffle Extravaganza - a month-long feast celebrating the unforgettable flavour and culture surrounding Alba white truffles.
The fleeting aroma and rarity of white truffles make Alba the world's premier destination for hunting and foraging. And while travel to this UNESCO World Heritage Site might be off the plate for many, diners can still enjoy the earthy perfume of this sumptuous ingredient at Pirata.
White Truffle Extravaganza is best experienced on an exclusive, 4-course dinner tasting menu (HKD650 per person). From appetizers to dessert, everything is joyfully infused with a deep musk that marks an indulgent feast. Dishes include White Truffle Beef Carpaccio, Tegamino Egg, Homemade Tagliatelle with 24-month aged Parmigiano-Reggiano, Butcher's Cut Wagyu beef flank steak, Pan Seared Cod 'Meuniere,' White Truffle Ice Cream, and more.
Every course is paired with wine from a powerhouse neighboring region, including Barolo and Asti (HKD300 supplement). Dishes with white truffles are also on Pirata's Lunch, Brunch and Dunch menus.
Available from now until 30 November

Nikkei Reloaded: New Hero Dishes
Peruvian Culinary Director Arturo Melendez unleashes a trio of new hero dishes at Hong Kong's first and original Nikkei izakaya. A sexy riff on surf and turf, Tiradito Mar Y Tierra combines raw tuna akami with seared beef tenderloin in passion fruit tiger's milk.
The union of Japanese cuisine's sensual simplicity and Peruvian cuisine's flavourful intensity is quintessential TokyoLima. Inspired by the folklore of the rainforest, Flaming Fish is a seductive dish that evokes the heat and soul of Peru.
It features grilled Japanese yellowtail with a Peruvian Amazon sauce, roasted potato, and stir-fried vegetables. Lady Marmalade is an alluring dessert featuring rum milk cake with homemade fig jam, fig sorbet, and pistachio. TokyoLima.G/F, 18-20 Lyndhurst Terrace, Central, Hong Kong. www.tokyolima.hk

Diwali
Diwali is the Indian festival of lights. It sparks new beginnings, symbolizing the triumph of light over darkness. To celebrate India's most important holiday of the year, Chaiwala, Pirata Group's colorful, lively and aromatic enclave on Wyndham street, invites guests to a festive, bold and authentic Diwali feast.
A special Diwali Tasting Menu (HKD480 per person; optional 2-hour free flow HKD240) features tangy chaats and salad including Chaiwala's famous Pani Puri with Jal-Jeera. Small plates include delicious proteins such as crisp, boneless Bombay Fried Chicken and Dakshini Prawns.
A trio of curries follow next, with Old Delhi Butter Chicken, Kerala Fish Curry, and Szechuan Chilli Paneer. Chaiwala's Signature Tandoori Platter is a roast feast with pink salmon, chicken tikka, cauliflower and classic paneer.
Finish the feast with South Asian Spice, a reinterpretation of the classic Gulab Jamun with mint syrup, caramelized pistachio, yogurt, and pineapple.
As an extra-special treat, dance in the dining hall on 14 November when a DJ joins on the brunch and dinner festivities.
Available from 9 to 15 November for dinner and weekend brunch
Deluxe Tandoori Delights
Chaiwala's Executive Chef Prabir Banerjee is also proud to introduce new hero dishes that encapsulate the restaurant's contemporary classics.
Amping up the aromatic smoke show with a deluxe touch are Tandoori-grilled Sea Bass Jhol (HKD360) - a whole seabass with Bengali fish sauce; and Tandoori Beef Ribs (HKD550) - Australian beef ribs served with fried baby potatoes, gravy, and mint chutney.
As a nod to Chinese culture, a traditional cheese dish gets a little twist. An intriguing Sichuan Chilli Paneer (HKD220) with homemade Sichuan chili sauce makes its debut.

Hong Kong Golf & Tennis Academy
Hong Kong Golf & Tennis Academy Announces New Wellness and Performance Partners
Hong Kong Golf & Tennis Academy (HKGTA) has announced new partnerships with two of Hong Kong's leading personal performance and wellbeing operators at the Academy's sports and wellness complex located on the outskirts of Sai Kung in the New Territories.
The two ventures complement HKGTA's existing tie-ups with sports partners, PGA of America Learning & Performance, Bruguera Tennis Academy and Eliteswim Academy and reaffirm the Academy's status as Hong Kong's first world-class, total wellness destination.
Industry pioneer, THIA Wellness joins HKGTA to head the Academy's total wellbeing offering. Recognised for its bespoke, customer-centric service approach, the operator's remit extends from massage therapy and meditation treatments to gastronomy, education and guest room services.
Located a short walk from the main Sports House, THIA Wellness will provide patrons with a range of spa, massage and facial treatments, as well as yoga, Pilates and meditation sessions.
The service provider will also oversee the Academy's ground-breaking Gastronomy Lab, where it will provide a series of on- and offline cooking and nutritional classes, while the Guest Room service will make in-room massage experiences available in all 89 rooms.
The partnership will be further complimented by a full range of retail products available exclusively to HKGTA patrons such as its Vinoble 'nature in a jar' cosmetics range, sourced from natural grape-based ingredients in Austria.
'THIA Wellness is truly excited to be a partner of HKGTA, providing patrons with unique and customized wellness experiences, services, and products that are the embodiment of our 'sophisticated simplicity' philosophy," said Barry White, Founder and Owner of THIA Wellness.
Hong Kong's leading Performance and Personal Treatment specialist Joint Dynamics has opened its doors at the Academy, providing patrons with access to its full range of medical, rehabilitation and personal training services. Joint Dynamics' multidisciplinary approach combines physiotherapy and personal training with a sports clinic comprising physiotherapists, osteopaths, stretch therapists, and sports scientists. The company's unique and individualized approach to the prevention and treatment of movement dysfunction and injury combines the expertise of trained professionals with some of the most advanced technology available.
With programs designed for athletes, elite performers, and working professionals, Joint Dynamics offers bespoke training through four streams of health and wellness: Movement, Strength & Conditioning, Fitness, and Testing. Each of the streams complements one another and are designed to feed into bespoke tennis, golf, or swim training (High Performance) or are used to improve general health, wellness, weight loss, and mobility (Lifestyle Fitness).
Joint Dynamics is also working with HKGTA in the redesign and implementation of both indoor and outdoor fitness facilities. High-Intensity Training will be mixed with strength, mobility, and a large dose of good fun, with all ages catered for.
Speaking about the new partnerships, Kurt Greve, General Manager, HKGTA, said: "We're pleased to welcome THIA Wellness and Joint Dynamics to Hong Kong Golf & Tennis Academy. One of the defining features of the Academy is its unique partnerships with leading operators in their respective fields. These service providers will complement existing alliances with PGA of America, Bruguera Tennis Academy and EliteSwim to provide patrons and their families with world-class performance, treatment, and personal training services.
"The recent restrictions on sports and recreational activities have shown just how important physical activity is for our overall wellbeing. As these restrictions are gradually lifted, competitive sport will play an important, restorative role in our communities and I look forward to seeing HKGTA play an integral part in that process."
David Jacquier, Co-Owner of Joint Dynamics, added: "We are thrilled to partner with the team at the HKGTA. The amazing facilities and idyllic environment are supported by great staff. Joint Dynamics looks forward to providing solutions to Academy patrons with our universal approach to health and fitness backed by evidence-based practices and techniques. An added benefit of the collaboration is that HKGTA patrons will also enjoy reciprocal access to our Hong Kong Island venues."
Frequently described as 'Hong Kong's best-kept secret', Hong Kong Golf & Tennis Academy is an 820,000 sq. ft sports and wellness complex located on the outskirts of Sai Kung in the New Territories. It serves to provide patrons with the opportunity to learn from world-class coaches, using the very best international standard facilities, enabling a new generation of sports enthusiasts to reach their full potential.

Qatar Airways Launches its First Exclusive Programme for Students Worldwide
Qatar Airways has launched a global programme exclusive to students worldwide. Student Club is powered by the airline’s loyalty programme, Qatar Airways Privilege Club, and offers a range of benefits curated for students to support them throughout their educational journey.
Members of Student Club will enjoy spectacular savings and bespoke benefits such as special fares on flights, extra baggage allowances, the flexibility to change the dates of their flight, complimentary Super Wi-Fi onboard, and more. They will also be automatically enrolled to Qatar Airways Privilege Club – unlocking even greater rewards – and will receive a tier upgrade as a graduation gift as well as the opportunity to earn 5,000 Qmiles if they refer a friend to Student Club.
Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker, said: “Our brand new Student Club is designed specifically with students’ needs in mind. Travel is an important part of their life, with many choosing to study abroad for the duration of their university career or for a semester. We also know that the long university vacations are a wonderful opportunity for students to visit family or friends or simply to explore the world. Having listened to the needs of our current student passengers, we are delighted to help them to aim for the skies with our Student Club.”
The airline’s new programme for students is part of its wider transformation of Qatar Airways Privilege Club, which is being redefined to ensure that passengers are rewarded for their continued loyalty and receive the very best offers and benefits.
As members of Privilege Club, students will earn Qmiles when travelling with Qatar Airways, oneworld® airlines, or any of the airline’s partners. Students can also earn Qmiles by using Qatar Airways credit cards and when shopping with Privilege Club retail and lifestyle partners. Qmiles can be redeemed for a range of exciting benefits including award flights, upgrades or extra baggage on Qatar Airways, shopping in Qatar Duty Free as well flights and hotel stays with partners.
Student Club members will receive a digital card, which can be stored in their mobile wallet or Qatar Airways mobile app, indicating their membership tier. All students in full- and part-time education aged between 18 and 30 years are eligible to join the programme. To join Student Club, visit https://www.qatarairways.com/
A multiple award-winning airline, Qatar Airways was named ‘World’s Best Airline’ by the 2019 World Airline Awards, managed by Skytrax. It was also named ‘Best Airline in the Middle East’, ‘World’s Best Business Class’, and ‘Best Business Class Seat’, in recognition of its ground-breaking Business Class experience, Qsuite. It is the only airline to have been awarded the coveted ‘Skytrax Airline of the Year’ title, which is recognised as the pinnacle of excellence in the airline industry, five times.
In addition to offering excellent service for passengers, Qatar Airways is also focused on the sustainability of its operations. The airline’s variety of modern, fuel-efficient aircraft – particularly its fleet of 52 Airbus A350s and 30 Boeing 787s – reduces its carbon dioxide emissions. Due to COVID-19’s impact on travel demand, the airline has grounded its fleet of Airbus A380s as it is not environmentally justifiable to operate such a large aircraft in the current market. Qatar Airways has also recently launched a new programme that enables passengers to voluntarily offset the carbon emissions associated with their journey at the point of booking.na
